How to prepare it step by step?
Preparation
- In a bowl, combine soy sauce, brown sugar, honey, grated ginger, minced garlic, sesame oil, and black pepper. Stir until the sugar dissolves and the mixture is smooth.
- Add the chicken strips, ensuring they are evenly coated with the marinade. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or overnight for enhanced flavor.
- Preheat a grill to medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade, letting excess drip off.
- Grill the chicken strips for 3-4 minutes per side, until they are golden brown and cooked through. Look for a slight char and juicy texture.
- While grilling, heat the remaining marinade in a skillet over medium heat. Bring to a boil and let it simmer until it thickens slightly, releasing a fragrant aroma.
- Drizzle the hot sauce over the grilled chicken. Serve immediately over cooked white rice, garnished with fresh cabbage sprouts.
